    Hello, building a small catamaran and looking to install inboard (thru-hull) rudder posts. I've looked into the materials needed and was wondering if anyone had a good source for fiberglass tubing of about 2" OD, 1.5" ID.

    I'll be using SS rod for rudder posts with the rudder fabricated around a welded web to the post.

    Thank you.
